Tahoe Thing to Do: Health & Wellness

Elivate your wellness with the most innovative and effective products to optimize how your body feels, performs and recovers from all your Tahoe adventures. Tahoe's climate, elevation and active outdoor lifestyle can deplete our bodies of the hydration, vitamins and nutrients we need. Dehydration and nutrient deficiencies can damage our cells, which accelerates aging. Elivate helps you keep moving for 100-plus years of adventure by delivering you a menu of nutrient IV formulas and vitamin/amino injections provided by a team of experienced and licensed nurses across North Tahoe. Elivate your wellness and longevity in the comfort of your home. This business is completely mobile and focuses on house calls to homes, rentals and lodging as well as weekly wellness at residential communities and involvement in athletic and other events. 

Tahoe Forest Baths offers Cedar Enzyme Detox Baths, a unique spa experience based on a time-honored Japanese tradition that is gaining in popularity around the world. One of only two places in North America to experience this purifying and relaxing treatment, Tahoe Forest Baths immerses your body in soft, dry fermented cedar and enzymes cultured and imported from the organic farmlands of Hokkaido, Japan. The cedar warms you from the inside out, providing detoxification, exfoliation, stress relief and rejuvenation for the skin, digestion, metabolism and sleep. The Cedar Enzyme Detox Baths are excellent for muscle recovery for athletes and anyone who's been out enjoying the active Tahoe lifestyle. Post-bath, you'll enjoy hydrating enzyme beverages and an optional treatment from the Oxygen Bar.

Take a look around and it’s clear that Truckee is a special town: history, mountains, lakes, river and forests. But there are many hidden gems known mostly to locals. Those gems are kept shining by the Truckee-Donner Recreation & Park District for the enjoyment of locals and visitors. Some of the amenities and facilities managed by the district are accessible for free, others for a fee. The district has deservedly received awards for its facilities, from the nine-hole Ponderosa Golf Course and an ice rink in winter to super-kid-friendly West End Beach and the public piers on Donner Lake. The crown jewel is the 40,000-square-foot Community Recreation Center with, among other things, a two-court gymnasium, a state-of-the-art indoor aquatics center, an indoor running track, exercise equipment, two climbing walls (one is 29 feet tall) and a state-of-the-art aquatics center. Want to find Truckee’s soul? Check out the bike park at Riverview Sports Park and the popular disc golf course and skate park in Regional Park. Be sure to explore all of Truckee-Donner Recreation & Park District's programming and facilities that continue to provide a wide variety of recreational opportunities in the Truckee area.
